Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 317 Resolving Passivity
Yueling wanted to stay and help, which made Su Qingning very happy and grateful. She knew Yueling's abilities well, and with her help, many things would definitely be much easier.

He quickly ordered someone to clean up the house and settle the two of them down.

The drought is still going on, and the voices of the court are getting louder and louder. It is said that even the people have started to plead for orders, asking the emperor to depose Su Qingning, who is a noble concubine.

Emperor Chen endured all this silently, every night, he would still come to Yuxiu Palace, every time he came, there was always a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.

Su Qingning's heart aches for the emperor's behavior, but she will not tell the emperor and listen to the ministers, because she knows that there will be a solution, and it will be fine once this matter is over.

A few days later, Yueling handed a piece of paper to Su Qingning. Her face turned pale, but she was in good spirits, which made Su Qingning very worried.

"Don't worry about me, just take a rest. I didn't expect my ability to degenerate so much after pregnancy." Smiling, Yueling comforted Su Qingning. "After passing this pass, it will probably be fine."

When she said so, Su Qingning nodded, now is not the time to be hypocritical, and it won't be too late to say thank you after everything is settled properly.

The things were handed over to Su Qingning, and Yue Ling's mission was considered completed. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left the palace on the same day without any delay.

In the evening, Emperor Chen returned to Yuxiu Palace, Su Qingning could see that his eyes were tired, but when facing her, Emperor Chen always had a smile on his face, and Su Qingning felt more and more distressed.

"Your Majesty, this concubine has a solution." Yang raised the paper in his hand, it was left by Yue Ling, and it had the date written on it, the date when it would rain.

Originally, the rumor about Su Qingning's catastrophe was not serious, but because of the long-term drought, people with good intentions put this matter entirely on Su Qingning.

The common people don't know whether it's true or not. They only know that it's dry now. If this continues, there will be no crops in the field. This means that there will be no food, and it means that some people will starve to death.

For them, it is just to dethrone a noble concubine. If they can exchange for rain from the sky, it is still a good deal. Of course, if they cannot be exchanged, then it doesn't matter, after all, they will not be affected.

Faced with their thinking, if you want to crack it, you must start from the root cause. Since you want rain, I will rain it for you.

Su Qingning is not a god, neither is Yueling. The two of them can't make it rain, but Yueling can figure out when it will rain. This has helped Su Qingning a lot invisibly.

"How to say?" Stretching out his hand to take the piece of paper from Su Qingning's hand, the emperor glanced at it, but didn't understand it.

"This is my concubine's sister-in-law, it's for my concubine." Taking back the piece of paper from Emperor Chen, Su Qingning smiled and said,
Reaching out her hand, holding Chendi's hand, pulling him to sit on the soft couch beside her, Su Qingning put the paper on the small table, and explained to Chendi.

"The concubine knows that many people in the court have asked the emperor to depose the concubine. They listened to the rumors and believed that the concubine was a disaster and that it was the concubine who made Daxing dry. However, these things have never been under the control of the concubine."

"The concubine knows that the emperor has withstood a lot of pressure for the sake of the concubine, and the concubine feels distressed seeing the emperor like this."

"Presumably the emperor knows that my concubine's sister-in-law is the former saint of the Southern Chu Kingdom. She is proficient in the art of deduction. Although she is pregnant now and her ability has declined, there are some things that are not a big deal for her. These few days , she lived in the palace and helped the concubine deduce some things."

"The date and time on this paper are the credit of my concubine and sister-in-law." After explaining briefly, Su Qingning looked at the emperor with a twinkle in his eyes, "Your majesty, don't the ministers in the court and the common people want rain? My concubine will make it rain."

Emperor Chen sat on the soft couch, looking at Su Qingning, her eyes were shining, and the expression on her face was full of confidence.

"It just so happens that through this matter, I can seek some benefits for myself. I want to let those people know that I am not a disaster, but a blessing for Daxing."

In the past few days, Su Qingning's mind has not stopped. She has thought about this matter carefully several times.

In any case, after so long, the grievances that should have been suffered have already been suffered. Now, it is time to get back the interest. Of course, the capital must also be recovered. It is impossible for her to let herself be wronged in vain.

"What Ningning thinks, tell my concubine." Emperor Chen had never seen Su Qingning before, and all along, he thought Su Qingning was gentle and intelligent.

It was the first time he saw her like this, and the emperor was very curious about her thoughts.

"The emperor has seen the content on this paper. There are less than five days before the first rain. With these five days, I can do many things. This is what I think..."

Attached to the emperor's ear, Su Qingning told the emperor of her plan exactly. In order to prevent the wall from having ears, she deliberately lowered her voice. Apart from her and the emperor, no third person would know her plan.

Emperor Chen listened carefully, until Su Qingning finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that Su Qingning's method was really wonderful.

Not only can the current crisis be resolved, but it can also stop everyone's mouth from now on. After this incident, no one will attack Su Qingning with this, and the courtiers will not say anything about deposing the imperial concubine.

"Just do as you said, I will order the hidden guards to do it." To complete this matter, the emperor's hidden guards are needed, the emperor stood up and walked towards the outside of the hall.

The matter this time is of great importance, and the emperor needs to go to his own Chengqian Palace to make arrangements slowly.

Su Qingning didn't stop Emperor Chen, she was slightly relieved to see Emperor Chen leave.

…………

"Your Majesty, for the sake of prosperity, please depose Su Guifei."

"Please depose Concubine Su."

Above the court hall, many ministers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor. The emperor sat at the head with a gloomy expression.

Standing in the hall, Shen Yu looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground, his face was not good-looking, although he already knew that his wife had a solution, but seeing such a scene, he was still very angry.

The voices of the ministers continued to be heard, and just when the emperor wanted to get angry, Zhou Chengren walked over quickly and responded to the emperor.

"Report to the emperor, someone from the palace reported that there was a vision in the harem." Zhou Chengren's voice was loud enough for everyone in the palace to hear. The ministers who had originally petitioned stopped immediately and looked at the emperor secretly. .

"Vision? What vision?" Emperor Chen looked at it calmly, and then asked Zhou Chengren.

"The servant is not very clear, the emperor should go and see for himself..."
